The GOP’s message is that President Barack Obama is choosing big business over ordinary Americans after the White House postponed a provision that requires employers provide health insurance for their workers.

“I think what the president did is outrageous,” Boehner said Tuesday morning. “The idea that we’re going to give big businesses a break under Obamacare, but we’re going to punish small businesses and families? It’s wrong, and we’ll have another vote. Count on it.”

That bill would be akin to gutting the health care law, and is likely to be a non-starter in the Democratic Senate or with President Barack Obama.
